Was it? I confess that I initially downvoted them on principle but came back to remove the downvote after reading the article because it did have strong LLM vibes.
There were lots of turns of phrase that didn't feel natural in a technical blog post but are common in ChatGPT's prose. But honestly the bigger red flag for me was the listicle format, with a numbered 6-point outline fleshed out with a few paragraphs per heading and no transitions or relationships of any kind between sections. It felt like something written in chunks and stitched together afterward, which is a common artifact of a ChatGPT workflow (since it produces small chunks of text at a time rather than whole coherent essays).
